SWPH is looking for information about a dog that was involved in a biting incident in the Friendly City.

WOODSTOCK - A dog biting incident is under investigation by Southwestern Public Health.

It is said to have happened on Saturday around 5 p.m. at the Roth Park Dog Park in Woodstock. A man was bit on the hand while breaking up a fight between his dog and another dog. The Health Agency says only two parties were at the park at the time of the incident, which were the injured man with his dog, along with a woman with her son and two black dogs, described as a Golden Retriever and Bernese Mountain dog mix.

Southwestern Public Health is requesting the dog owner to come forward to confirm the dog's vaccination status. Knowing the status is important for potential healthcare needs for the man who was bit.

If you are the owner or have any information that can help you can call Southwestern Public Health at 1-800-922-0096 ext. 3538 and ask to speak with a Public Health Inspector.
